The artist has given the complete sum of his twenty-five thousand pound honor cash to the MVT, which operates to protect the Britain's grassroots live music spots.
The star was given the prize on October 16 as his new release the album was named the best record of the previous year.
He has decided to give the cash to the Music Venues Trust, in appreciation of the essential function local spots played in his early career.
"I wouldn't be doing what I am doing today if it wasn't for all the gigs I played around the area, and further afield, when I was starting out," said the artist. "These spaces are iconic, but they are facing challenges."
From early 2023 onward, at least 150 of these locations have shut down – approximately 16 percent of the whole industry in the UK.
Recently, well-known musicians including Pulp, Coldplay, the singer Katy Perry and Ed Sheeran have all aided the trust in its attempts to support the industry, by adding a modest fee to their ticket prices, which goes to help local stages.
Fender also took part, generating more than £100,000 on his live tour to assist 38 grassroots venues across Britain.
The donation supported venues that were confronting possible closure due to issues caused by flooding, blazes and bereavements, as well as permit problems, legal disputes and noise complaints.
Other venues obtained monetary aid in modernizing amenities and gear that positively impacted artists and audiences.
"The idea that revenue from shows in major spaces helps the local stages, where it begins for performers like me, is just common sense," Sam Fender has stated.
The musician is not the first artist to contribute his award prize money to worthy causes.
Back when Pulp received the award in the mid-90s for their album the album, vocalist the singer stated that the band would donate their prize money to the organization War Child.
In 2002, musician she split her award among a few charities, including the NSPCC and a Sickle Cell charity.
"Additionally, I gave a thousand pounds to my local community centre, to their classes, because I practiced gymnastics when I was a child and they needed better apparatus," she shared with outlets.
Two years ago, the band donated their winnings to the youth organization that supported their band, in addition to other grassroots music organisations.
Also winners that year the group donated their award to a multiple sclerosis charity after a friend was found to have the illness.
"Receiving the award was sufficient," said artist Heather Small. "The cash was the extra but we didn't require the cherry, because we had the cake. So our winning impacted the lives of others."
In the past week, the Music Venues Trust shared it had saved a couple of small stages in that region, by placing them under local control.
The Joiners in the city and the second in that location were purchased under the Own Our Venues scheme, which is supported by a national body and enthusiasts who buy "stakes" in the properties.
